You're no better.

By arosebyanyothername

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I don't need your lectures. You think your better then me. Guess what: your not. You might have a couple of more chronological years. That doesn't mean you are wiser. Cuz you've lived in this fairy tale land of yours. Too afraid to open up your eyes and look out at what's real. Don't tell me what to do, Cuz you've made mistakes of your own. I don't mock you and ridicule every action you make. I would appreciate. That same courtesy from you. Don't act superior to me, Cuz you know deep inside you are no better. I have not chosen to act as you have And some might say that I am more mature than you. Years don't give you the authority to judge my actions. I don't know who you think you but you are not any better. I am only in your presence because I have no where esle to go. Believe me if I could I would have been gone long ago. Sometimes I can trust you other times it's opposite. You as me to lie, Yet lecture me on my behavior. Doesn't this seem hypocritical to you. I have given up on trying to reach you. You are almost as stubborn as me. Just treat me with the same respect you would a stranger! Written March 22nd, 2002 © on Mar 22 2002 11:56 AM PST   10 • 0
